enclosure physical address. The Fibre Channel drive enclosure physical address is assigned by
negotiation during system initialization.
The following sections define the disk drive error codes.
0.1.en.01 CRITICAL condition—Drive configuration or drive link rate
As each drive spins up and comes on-line, the EMU determines if the drive is Fibre Channel compatible
and can operate at the link rate (1 Gbps or 2 Gbps) established by the I/O module. If either of these
conditions are not met, the EMU issues the condition report 0.1.en.01.
The corrective actions for these conditions are:
• When the drive is not Fibre Channel-compatible you must install a Fibre Channel compatible drive
or a drive blank.
• When the drive is Fibre Channel-compatible, the EMU compares the drive link rate with the I/O
module link rate, the loop link rate.
If the EMU cannot determine the drive link rate, the EMU activates the drive bypass function for one
minute. During this time the EMU continually checks the drive to determine the link rate.
• If the EMU determines the drive cannot operate at the Fibre Channel link rate set by the I/O
module, the drive bypass function ends and the drive is placed on the loop. This does not generate
a condition report.
• The EMU issues the condition report 0.1.en.01 when the drive link rate is incompatible with Fibre
Channel link rate.
• When the EMU cannot determine the drive link rate during the one-minute drive bypass time, the
EMU places the drive on the loop. This process allows the drive to negotiate for an address.
• If negotiation indicates the link rates are compatible, the EMU rechecks the drive link rate to
verify compatibility.
• If negotiation indicates the link rates are incompatible, an error condition exists and drive loop
data transfers stop.
This condition report remains active until the problem is corrected. The problem affects disk drive en.
Therefore, correction to prevent the possible failure of other elements is not required.
Complete the following procedure to correct this problem:
1. Record all six characters of the condition report.
2.
Replace the defective drive with:
• A Fibre Channel-compatible drive.
• A Fibre Channel drive capable of operating at a link rate supported by I/O modules and
transceivers.
3. Observe the EMU to ensure the error is corrected.
4. If unable to correct the problem, contact your authorized service representative.
0.1.en.02 INFORMATION condition—Drive missing
The drive is improperly installed or missing. Either option could affect the enclosure air flow and cause
an over temperature condition for another element.
• This error remains active for one minute, or until the problem is corrected, whichever occurs first.
• Immediate correction is not required. However, correction cannot be delayed indefinitely.
Complete the following procedure to correct this problem.
